The priest at Lodi's St. John's Episcopal Church has been encouraged to leave the local diocese by the bishop who would like to see the diocese splinter off from the main church.


Rick Matters, priest at Lodi's St. John's, said his bishop, John-David Schofield, has encouraged the local parish to leave the diocese.

Schofield, based in Fresno, is an arch conservative who wants to leave the U.S. Episcopal Church and to instead serve under the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Anglican Church.
